Windows x64 update: opening searchi again now brings the existing window forward instead of starting another desktop/model session. Explicit isolated profiles remain independent.
Download
searchi_0.1.1_x64-setup.exeand verify it againstSHA256SUMS-0.1.1.txt. Close the running app before installing an update. Your selected folders, settings and index are retained; this release does not change their storage schema.The normal runtime includes hardware detection, Vulkan support and CPU fallback. Google EmbeddingGemma 2 model files are downloaded and verified by the desktop when missing. Cached files are reused.
Validation: 57 frontend tests and 35 native desktop tests passed. All 39 files in the corresponding local runtime archive were checksum-verified. An isolated Windows launch on CPU created a genuine Google semantic generation (two chunks, 768 dimensions); a duplicate launch exited successfully while the original test app remained alive. Owned test processes were then cleaned up. Native visual focus/restoration is not verified. The installer was built, but this update has not been installed over the currently running user app.
This remains an unsigned early Windows release. Media relevance is experimental. macOS/Linux packages, real GPU execution and broader clean-machine/platform tests remain follow-up work.
For local agents, the separately tested optional CLI/MCP executable and CLI checksum remain available. See the agent setup guide. They use the desktop's runtime, verified model cache and existing index.

searchi-headless_0.1.0_linux-x86_64.tar.xzandLINUX-SHA256SUMS.txtare now available. This CLI/MCP package includes the normal Google runtime and media helpers. It was checked on Ubuntu 24.04 WSL using CPU, with genuine document/code/audio indexing, semantic search, citations and strict filters. Requires compatible GLIBC 2.39, GLIBCXX 3.4.32 and CXXABI 1.3.13 runtime versions. Older distributions, clean-machine coverage and real GPU execution remain unverified. It is not a Linux desktop package. See headless installation and evidence.Downloads
